Abstract

Maximum Entropy Method (MEM) is one of powerful tools for material science. We developed the program Z-MEM for evaluation of electron and nuclear density distribution by MEM analysis and Fourier synthesis. This code is designed by the multi-threading library OpenMP, so that the calculation performance is significantly improvements for MEM analysis. Z-MEM is bundled in Z-Rietveld, which is Rietveld software for X-ray and neutron powder diffraction, via the application programming interface (API). Since Z-MEM have equipped with the graphical user interface operations, users can perform from Rietveld refinement to MEM analysis seamlessly.
